The cable is differently proportioned, the helmet is more bulky. It's very close, but it's slightly different, and in a way in which you'd expect plastic to be different. What a revelation!Scalenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07686644105089579423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-79710552249324002182015-01-07T10:53:24.615+00:002015-01-07T10:53:24.615+00:00I would like to ask Bob Naismith more about his in...I would like to ask Bob Naismith more about his involvement with HeroQuest miniatures (UK and US) from MB.

In my search I stumbled across this great interview, sadly the website listed above doesn't seem to be operational. Do you know how I might be able to get in touch with him? Thank you for any and all help.<br />Also the miniature in question is Citadel LE16 Sanity Claws (from around '85 or '86)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18246303968870367417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-78345415496003564632014-01-05T16:12:47.548+00:002014-01-05T16:12:47.548+00:00Bob Naismith is the best!

Would you consider selling it? I would pay a handsome amount for one :) My contact information is below, thanks!<br /><br />kermit_fries@yahoo.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11473638101925889550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-1455162649561032622014-01-05T16:11:26.234+00:002014-01-05T16:11:26.234+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11473638101925889550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-76847265110627878922013-12-24T06:41:58.328+00:002013-12-24T06:41:58.328+00:00How can I get my hands on that female space elf tr...How can I get my hands on that female space elf trader sculpt???Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12728450135657424715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-36355357562153410552013-11-15T08:48:57.866+00:002013-11-15T08:48:57.866+00:00Glad you like the interview guys!

Love it! But I...Very cool interview, and well done! Love it! But I wonder how much of the drive to have releases drove the "conversion" releases as much as Citadel used to do. I always thought it was great to get different versions, as I loved the variety back then (one of the fails with all of the plastic parts nowadays - they are all just too much of the same- which drove me searching for Oldhammer before it existed!). So I wonder how much was the sculptors being creative and how much was driven by demands to get x number of releases done....Thanks for the great interview Axiom!Kaleb Hordeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18279279669165070169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-35163489462546711162013-11-13T22:43:02.709+00:002013-11-13T22:43:02.709+00:00Nice interview, thanks for posting it.
